Sarcastic words, "change the name more with you?" He asked ...

I wanted to get ideas about my location, even if what one here seemed to have become accustomed, moreover happens to be my interpreter, can understand what they say, I could tell my purport ... I started to ask him questions ...

Pulled me aside that day, black network, presented to Hafsa Sultan, my holding period and asked me to be respectful. He was a sultana and head of the Harem, the Crimean Khan and the daughter of the late Mengli Giray Yavuz Sultan Haseki of the new Sultan of Sultan Süleyman the only mother.

White-throated, blue silk velvet robe from the fur turned from the light shone like collars. There was a sapphire and diamond necklace around her neck. At the beginning of the end of the long title of the thin blue silk fabric was no longer up to the blue sapphires shone on the title ... ... the fish meat, was a woman of medium height and young-looking. Such a beautiful smell of jasmine and roses in the room had that myself in the garden of Eden in the presence of an emerald Anka thought.
After the first Black man, I smell the beautiful foothills of the fur robe, we kissed ... look smart with black man nodded slightly, bowed respectfully hadımağası "gift of the Crimean Khan Rokselena sultanım your concubine" he had presented to me ... And head inclined stood back ...
Me in my own language "Welcome, my dear daughter," he said, there was a tone of voice in the compassionate ... I
"Sultan added our favor." I have the answer ...
I came close to my chin with his hands held in soft cotton, and leaning my head raised, eyes looked deep ... a new location was carefully examined ... She smiled as the inventor ...
I also carefully answered me with a smile the same smile ... Satisfied with an expression tree returned to the land, "Prepare this girl, come into the presence of my late afternoon after the lion."

Meanwhile a concubine room koşa koşa arrived, but the bustle did not understand the language of behavior is going wrong with something that was understood ... Balçiçek asked him, smiling at me the way words looked satisfied ...
"What happened?" I asked, hopping and jumping Balçiçek came to me as well ...
"Resurrection of the break room ... Valide Sultan hünkar will be presented to you when you say you Mahidevran have a disparagement to hünkar, ask!"
Pert laughed ... "Haseki mean we will not worry!"
"Valide sultan had to be disrespectful of hünkar In addition, the curve of your nose, one that told the wild. But like I said has sultana. I know the subtleties of the pleasure of the Sultan's mother, she was scolded almost Mahidevran'ı. "He said.
I was glad, Haseki sultans for a slave girl next to the secret war between hünkar showed that competition. Light appeared for me to get rid of slavery ...
Asr at the time before a time, one of the concubines without rhyme or reason to come to my hand slap has exploded in my face ... I Am stops, responded to my ... hair was sticking something to say ... we have started to fight ... later, the concubine of Mahidevran'ın loyal servant of the learned.

After a while, broke up a fight ... I was Perişan case, the time had come ... Black-faced man angry with me, the "combative Muscovite girl you, did you add together the harem," he told ...
In fact, there was another frenzy, had quite an earful Mahidevran'dan share was, like me, lest Balçiçek told me later ... Sultan were doing their best ...
Just me, scattered, would lead to peace ... in a hurry again with the corridor was passed, black men went behind the curtain, I wait at the door ... Land faced man with a thin voice, excitedly said something, complaining that it was clear to me ...
Sultan's voice was not heard, was just listening ...
Then get inside the skirts of the sultana ago after hünkar kissed ...
Sparse hair, my clothes were ripped ... There I was standing, trembling as I think the Sultan would share me ... was a man sensitive enough to feel me shaking Solomon ... "Tell trembling bird, why are you into?"
Zone had to know I liked, with the slaves who speak their own language ... to me with a smile, looking at a sultan, a light brown beard, white skin was what the beautiful surrounding ...
Light brown eyes were hidden in such an intelligence that had been big beautiful eyes, nose and face in the race ... a unique personality with bone big win ...
Get up in the grandeur of this once ... I tremble with broad shoulders and a green robe with fur looked like a lion, a lion-like face had this to say ... see perhaps, was like the frozen, my eyes locked eyes nearly ... "I ... I ..." she could ...
Came to me, musk smell to my nose when my face became pink, cherry red lips on my back ... I was feeling the heat ... Get me out at my forelock pushed aside, his hands soft mother was ... "Fear not, little girl, tell why you get so grumpy? Look complain, harem floor together. "
His deeply relaxing and unique sound from me was fascinated ...
At that moment, with a huge commitment, "Harem smug in my concubines will be the maid, I prefer to be ground under your feet, efem!" I said quietly, my head ... and I lean forward ...
I mean ... I knew Mahidevran'ı
Valide Sultan returned to ... "I know the taste of your mother-in tact, but this time make a choice You have a very accurate ... the most beautiful gift you gave me! "
I was very fond of words, my heart smiles quickly ... I was hit ...
"How beautiful are you laughing, laughing in the face is open, what you have an innocent expression, what's your name?" "Rokselena" I have the answer ...
Without taking their eyes of my eyes, with a smile, "I say Hürrem more worthy," he said.

In love with my own harem of Sultan Suleyman wanted to get to ... just not in her body, with all his soul and glory that far, self-love as a wife wanted to own ....

IV.BÖLÜM: of RODOS RETURN
I am a queen can be equipped with skills had been created in front of me ... Fate of the Ottoman Palace and its most powerful Sultan Sultan Solomon was giving me ... Hafsa Sultan and Sultan Suleiman I saw the light was ... just more princes when purchased, such as the Ibrahim Pasha, the ability I have noticed, and to control the decided to train someone intelligent like Solomon ... I love to win was more difficult to conquer Belgrade and Rhodes in his eyes ...
Write letters to his mother from the battlefield, I was asking my situation, showed interest in me ... Valide sultan him with a smile like I've had them ... I was good news, does not distinguish from Hafsa Sultan was next to me.

So in the absence of history, information on religion and poetry classes I took at ... worthy of a sultan home was a special education ... My mother-in that would fit the sultanates, in me always I reserve this goal ... the Sultan arrives bearing his only friends, not the mother of the prince should be.
Service to my black curly-haired minister with a concubine also no longer be able to understand ... Name-remedial instrument was ... was of African descent, whether he missed a slave to the palace he had been sold ... Herbs in was very knowledgeable ... It also was tight-lipped in the future ...

Iqbal had to be patient ... In the meantime Mahidevran'dan to stay away from me I did everything .
Sultan Süleyman I, Rhodes received at the hands of the knights in the island have made new arrangements and accommodation ahead of the field had reached the Topkapi Palace. In that case I was running on the armor. However, according to the rules before the palace would have been to his mother. O, that I must have been in love and longing from the seven-month preparation for the end of my circuit to see how you develop and attract to the side with me in my body. More passion in their eyes.
Small hands, palm to take their eyes by looking into "Hürrem, rose face şen Hürrem!" He stared longingly me. I've learned all the rules in defiance of the palace was wrapped neck. He responded, was closer to our eyes now ... "Hürrem!" He said,
"Hürrem me with love and hearts to love, will you forgive? You hem me in my heart, and in my mind. "Belgrade and Rhodes conqueror, my love for the heart of the gates opened wide, almost begged like a slave to the knees ... I had my eyes filled with joy from the years:" Yes, my Sultan. Yes ... you love your Amour, My heart to your heart is the victim! "
Hot breath on my face to kiss para position ...
"This morning I Vuslata EREL, Hürrem! I eat dinner with you. "He said. And gave orders to halayık ... "Hürrem then prepare for the evening!"
A sweet moment in the hustle and bustle had begun ...
Everything in the palace is spread quickly, slipped a star until the lightning light up in a short time, the sultan sultana without going to come to me that Hafsa hatun whispered in her ear was pleased with that, you know ... non-mother-sultan, the sultan with quick wit was calm ... Rhodes Go to his mother with a gift from the Solomon, her, holding the shower praise on me to educate, sultana of the dignified heart of the storm had relieved. Nevertheless, ear were taken with the following words: "If you indulge in some pampering Concubine is, is cheeky, head out. Don 't forget my son, you get a sultan. "
Mahidevran women, while the other three lost time, the sultan her son, were mourned ... a ruler Sultan Suleiman was believed to fate, it did not upset mourned together. People who want to target, walks with destiny, does not challenge her years. Sultan Süleyman I and the fate of the merged, had already started to give direction to date ...
... Him and his son Solomon did not go Mahidevran'a prince Mustafa was admitted to the presence, but it was cold ... Mahidevran this act indignant, saw something was broken shed ...
I waited anxiously in the evening ... Bath was clean love. After Valide Sultan, a bath with my name ... My favorite would have to have a portion of the beauty of my people wanted to benefit. Sultan Süleyman the first night before our time, the red-red hair was stringy scanned and adorned with pearls. Orange satin dress over a drink, pearl color of a fur robe and burn time in the same color orange silk fabrics hanging from the end was wearing a title. Pearl orange slippers adorned with beautiful clothes had completed my ... my hands are still condemned stone rings, gold and emeralds, pearls arranged my wrist under my neck, pearl bracelets and necklaces were worn ...

Kavuk on the crest of peacock feathers had and was decorated with emerald stone ... fills Crawl around the smell of musk, hyacinth and jasmine with a nice made up a unity.
Let us point he was seated the Sultan, melon took out. Meal was founded, equipped with the best food that was appetizing meal, but my excitement was cut my appetite. Sultan took me by hand to the wooden spoon soup, and I chuckled as I liked was that I was certain. The thumb of the water with the soup to my lips spread was deleted. Cage and then tune the instrument came, candle light eyes shone like stars.
"O my coy-eyed gazelle! You stole our hearts so that you can not think of anything else that we have our love. "Diye started a conversation ...
"You have been gracious efem! You have my heart as my lord. "Diye I answer.
"I have learned a lot of palace language intelligent girl," he smiled. I responded by smiling at me "Your Valide Hafsa Hatun, Allah give you long life, a good teacher my Sultan!"
"Right" he said, he and our mother is beautiful, and the taste is thin. Also is very patient, not the girl's father did not Yavuz Sultan. Harem is also very good administration, one day I did not hear a bad word, our mothers are lucky to have. "
To talk to him, the mother was important to hear the likes of the features for me ... because mothers addicted to men, women, more similar to their mother's temperament lovers, concubines he had heard from ...
Face up to me and gently took my chin was: "Hürrem! We are all a big sultan of the empire, but the bones from meat Lagoon. Your smile of a edali, acquired for us is worth more than a thousand times. Our loved ones, our hearts are slaves ... Never having you as our slave self. "
"Thank you efem! But my place in your heart you do not know anyone, I would serve as harem concubine in a simple, underestimated. "I've spoiled my coy.
"Do not feel bad ... I should not cloud your eyes Hürrem ... O beautiful for their masters do, tomorrow will be from the disposal of a servant. Sultan girl of my dreams you're a fairy.
You think them, everything has a solution. Sing me a song with beautiful voice, get scattered clouds aspirations. "
I got standing at the edge and I've learned an instrument I started to sing, looked happy. I'll be right into the smell of preparing the feast, such as taking a deep breath was deep.
It is finished, lips and took my hand and kissed it. Lifted me up and took her arms, smiled. "Never be afraid daughter of fairies, I will love you, love you I have a life." And I prepared to take to bed. That night, as one body and we did not leave each other again.
Kiss me in the morning, woke, slept watch me, it said.
For me it comes eunuch sultan ordered halayık and gift giving.
Eunuch Çaresâz'a delivered me, in the bath to be cleaned ... need to be a Muslim was to receive gusül ablutions. Get all the fatigue of the night was hot water, now I became a woman. Solomon's women ... to women, was a completely different feeling, even as Solomon's women was different. My ambition had increased, for the throne, the sultan of blood should lead to the princes.
When I pulled into my room to rest, sleep sweet magic of me, like clouds over relief. I do not know how much sleep, woke me up late afternoon to have servants do Çaresaz and Balçiçek face was in love. "What happened, why your face a mix?" I asked. They told me the room called Mahidevran'ın them feel. He did not have to go to my feet, I also wanted to say I was no longer a Haseki. I forwarded the wrath of their future, he developed keeping.
"Well, then, let's go, let's arrogant snub to women!" I said. Most beautiful dress and a beautiful dress after dress I've got next. Green eyes on the door had been sitting upright in Cedar ...
"Because I get, Hürrem, and finally entered the bosom of the sultan does! "Said the area ... I also mixed with" Thank you Haseki outdated, then do not call me your feet, because I'm not your maid! "I have the answer.
Suddenly he sprang to feet and came running to my side and grabbed my hair. Right-scratching was at such a rake that meat was scraped, this move marks a lifetime, I quit my browser from that region did not make a more ... later in all the pictures that the region will be left behind gave poses ...
"I was sold on, you aşüfte, you Muscovite girl! Ties have come away from the mountains and below you? "He began to shoot. And I swore I was Russian.
My face was scratched my eye, a bright idea came to my mind, did not respond to a good beat. Kicking the one hand was also slapped. Hair way, was cluttered. Harem of the network, halayık, hands have bought from me ... Can I began to cry from pain.
They took me to my room. Reading the evening call to prayer, my face and my eyes are trying to tidy my hair and Balçiçek'e obstacle Çaresaz to meet you. "Will the watch, he took revenge on the monster from the badly I will get rid of him" I said.
Sultan Süleyman, courtier with Ibrahim was generally ...
Ibrahim told him to worry about Nedim, tableware, and share ideas that was my best friend, is still a servant knows, the defect would not respect. Finished chatting with him, had eaten dinner. Send me a eunuch has called next.
Could not come to him, saying that I am not in the future condition. "Your light will look at your face is not beautiful anymore on my face ... your eyes, scratching and crying to establish new face became ugly I do not want to tire me ..." he sent news ... This is not something familiar to the harem was the sultan was very angry. Wait my goal, it was to increase the fury and wonder. I called again, this time there was a call to conform to the presence of clutter.
Halim saw was very upset, "Who did this to you?" He asked. I cried, hugged me when I cried more. Put my head to the shoulders and sobs into my search "Mahidevran your Haseki" I have the name of the jam. "I acted like halayık, I am at Haseki when, 'not sold, Muscovite girl from over the attacked. This has made me. "De told the event.
Was very angry, one of halayık "Haseki Mahidevran the call." Diye called.
Mahidevran peace, together with his son Mustafa princes, came in confident manner. There was no trace of regret in his eyes, there was a challenge. Looked at me in disgust. This did not escape the eyes of the Sultan. "Hürrem Haseki this then you have to make?" He said, in fact aim was to ensure that regret and apologize to me. As a result, their interest in doing this was because the intention was to forgive and Mahidevran'ı ... But do not expect a behavior encountered.
"Good to, I was made even less, was more worthy of the Muscovite girl!" He was told.
Sultan Suleyman "Leg been closed to apologize!" He said. Stopped for a moment and his son Mustafa Mahidevran to, "Go, kiss the feet of the following Haseki my son, his father keeps him on us!" He said. Its purpose was to embarrass the sultan, but this behavior was increasing fury. I evaluate this opportunity and I was closed to the feet of princes and Mustafa began to cry. Sultan Süleyman, the prince kissed the feet was very angry to be ordered. In this way, it's one of the blood used was very broken. Was left at the nose. "You my son when a full halayık how you might kiss the feet, begone! You shall not quit the room, my eye shall not appear, the aging will harem! "He was expelled from Mahidevran'ı peace.
Solomon was mine now, my dear side, but had Mahidevran had disgraced. Süleyman my face with his hands, my eyes were clear. To scan my hair, stroked and said nice words. Listened to me to my room to bid farewell with a kiss. Sultana and sisters of the sultan, this event does get past me to hear when they came to my side. Moreover, the Sultan has sent gifts to refresh my heart. I had conquered my heart and sincerity of the compatibility Harem. Everyone has heard of the Ottoman blood respect to each other was telling tall. Mahidevran had not finished with the struggle, but had I won the first encounter.
